Where did my patty go?

I remember couple years ago, when i was walking home from a school that now no longer exists, i stopped by at the esso petrol station to buy a burger. Thay had this microwave where you could heat the burger yourself which make the burger more.. well.. i just like it when i get to do little things like this. Which really explains why i like to buy heftily priced chicken rolls from seven eleven.

Somewhere along the way, under the void deck of some block in bishan, i unwrapped my piping hot burger. As i was going to take my first bite, the beef patty dropped out of my burger onto the floor. And i was like what the hell, and the patty was like neh nay nee boo boo.

Since i had walked quite a distance away from the petrol station, i didn't want to go back to get another burger. I think the actual reason was that i felt it was embarassing to go back to the petrol station to get another burger. As if the cashier would magically know that i dropped my patty on the floor. The cashier would probably have locked himself in the storeroom and laughed his intestines out. Evil cashiers.

Anyway, i picked up the patty from the floor and try to blow some of the unseen dirt off. Then i decided that the patty wasn't going to look any different no matter how hard i blow at it. So i giap-ed the patty between the bun and took my first bite.

It didn't seem so bad at first, except that my beef burger had tuned into sand burger. And a couple more steps along the way, i heard something pop underfoot. Turning back, i saw on the floor a piece of cockroach patty. The cockroach patty was sharing the same floor as my beef patty!

I don't really remember, but i think i didn't finish my sand burger whose beef patty shared the same floor with a cockroach patty.

  4. um.. the popping sound underfoot, it was a live cockroach before it became a patty.
